Hi everyone. This is my first post. I’ve made it 25 days today without alcohol and it’s a rough one. Today is Father’s Day and also the anniversary of the last time I spoke with my dad who passed just before Christmas last year. I started drinking really heavy at that time and didn’t stop until I ended up in the hospital after attempting suicide last month. I really badly just want a drink. I miss the numbness. I don’t want to feel these feelings.

Very sorry to hear about your dad. Have you considered writing a letter to him? I’ve done this in the past. Something about getting all those feelings down on paper and then burning it was very cathartic for me.
